Big Pharma wants it all. If Joe puts a cap on insulin, Big Pharma will not give him his 10%. Tough call for Joe.

High prices only hurt people that need this to live. Not dampen innovation. Big Pharmaceutical just want to get richer. Good job Biden!!! Keep up the great work!

Big pharma has been overcharging Americans for way too long, and then selling prescription drugs to other countries for a fraction of what they charge us. It`s time for Americans to stop being milked

Beware of unintended consequences. Like insulin shortages.

Adam, KMIZ doesn't want either one of us. Because we have an opinion, and don't walk lock step with them. Hang in there friend.

Adam Schrader

Horrible idea KMIZ. Will only make me not come here if it continues. What a pain.

Max

Isn't the new annoying KMIZ popup fun. When you click on every article, you have to also delete the pop up, so you can read the article. So very intelligent of KMIZ.

Max

That will be a way for Big Pharma, to justify price gouging. Excuse me, I mean, reasonable price increases.

It is the leading story on most of major news sites. It was all a made up game with a predetermined conclusion. How many dems/republicans are laughing and patting themselves on the back this morning telling each other 'Same time next year?'

Don't care one way or another, nor do those making the decisions in Congress, as they still are getting a paycheck.

Defund all welfare programs. Make people responsible for their own actions.

Max

SNAP is primarily funded by the U.S. federal government through congressional appropriations, with the USDA providing the funds, and states administering the program and covering their share of administrative costs.

Trump won this. SCOTUS ruled in favor of Trump.

Trump basically has no say in this, it's on the shoulders of Congress. Might want to study what all the 111th Congress did back in 2009-11... this is all about payback.

Spend the money on something else. Send missiles to israel instead.

Toasty

Its all a game both sides are playing with real people in the middle. Trump should step aside and tell congress this mess is all theirs.

Max

Schumer knows this is all on the backs of the democrats.
